Lady Antebellum had a bit of a flub singing the National Anthem on Saturday night, kicking off game 5 of the Nashville Predators 2nd round series against the Winnipeg Jets. Take a look…

But hey, it happens to the best of us, right? They still sounded great and hopefully their minor mistake will the be the worst thing that happens in Nashville tonight… meaning the Predators win to go ahead 3-2 in the series.

For those of you who don’t know, Nashville has these “watch parties” for anyone without tickets to home playoff games, and also for away games. Last year when the Predators made it to the finals, I went to 3 of these watch parties.

Not only did we lose those 3 games, we also never even scored! The one time a puck made it in the net was soon called for a controversial off-sides penalty.

Now it’s 2018 and the Predators are in the hockey playoffs again. The city is having the watch parties again. I went to one again. We lost again. The next game, which happened a few days later, we won. There was a watch party but I didn’t go.

You see what kind of stress I’m under now?

While you may think the solution is easy– just don’t go to a watch party– I’ll make it even easier… Someone needs to give me tickets so I can watch from INSIDE the arena. We never win when I’m watching from outside.
